ABOUT THE FARM AND COFFEE PRODUCER
The Karimikui washing station is one of the key components of the Rungeto Cooperative. Anyone who has been a fan of juicy Kenyan coffees for years may also recognize names such as Kii or Kiangoi, stations also operated by this cooperative. The group brings together 850 smallholder farmers, with the entire operation managed by Mr. Zablon Kamongo. Established in 1997, Karimikui has today become an undisputed synonym for top-quality Kenyan coffee. And indeed, year after year, coffees from this station generate excitement at the cupping table.
ABOUT COFFEE PROCESSING AT THE FARM
Kenyan varieties are hand-picked and initially sorted using the floating method. The cherries undergo depulping (separating the seed from the fruit) and are divided into three quality grades. They are wet-fermented for up to 36 hours, then washed and dried on raised beds for several days.
ROASTER’S OPINION
Karimikui is a true benchmark. I still remember how coffee from this station completely blew my mind back in 2012. You’re drinking a concentrated fruit juice, not coffee. If that’s your thing, go in blind. There are zero shots in the dark here.
